I think may fall for Giggly just a little bit - it looks like such a pretty colour when swatched, and I think it will be a nice summer shade too
omg that's exactly what I wanted to hear about Giggly! I was stuck trying to figure out if I wanted either Giggly or Sakura. I think I'm going to go with Giggly now since its a warmer color than Sakura. And yes...waiting does suck

[/quote] ;) every cloud has a sliver lining eh?! But still.... Put it up already MAC USA! Lol I definitely think Giggly is more springy summery look, I think it would look very nice over your colouring too :) I'm gonna try it out tomorrow with a full face look so that will hopefully show you what I mean, I know we are completely different tone wise but it still gives you an idea of the colour

I'm an NC45 and I wonder if giggly or sakura will even show up on me. Would there be more color payoff if applied wet? I don't want to spend money on a product where in the first few weeks will have a huge dent in it due to the poor color payoff. I was thinking of using a lipstick (nyx power l/s for sakura) and a regular pink cream blush (nyx hot pink) as a base and applying giggly and sakura on top if it came down to it. They're just so cute to pass up and I don't own any mac mineralized blushes. What do you ladies think?

looking at swatches these blushes are sheer and looking at both i think giggly would look better on brown skin girls, at least i think it has the better color payoff and i like giggly much better on karen than sakura

i'm just going to look at the blushes, nothing else interests me.
naked lipliner is one of my fave items of 2010 but since i still have 2 left and it'll be perm there's no rush.
i think i'll skip miss behave as i have enough highlighters already, however i'm still unsure about giggly and sakura.
should i get only one or both?
i really like sakura but giggly doesn't really look unique to me..

can't wait for karla's swatches!

Have you checked your order status on the website? Mine was showing on there as dispatched hours before the email was sent

Thanks for the info! I went digging in my stash and found a matte pale lavender pigment from Detrivore Cosmetics and I thought I'd mess around with it to see if it would show up on me....without anything, barely showed up and looked a little ashy. I added a pale purple lipstick as a creme blush and then applied the pigment. It looked nice, but too way too much product to get payoff. Then I decided to use my milani glimmer stripes in berry glimmer for a little sheen. Looked nice, but as soon as I took a picture with flash...OMG! Purple city and it looked h.o.r.r.i.b.l.e. Mind you this is a $5 pigment, imagine what I would look like with a heavy handed application of Sakura...FAIL! I was going to get both mineralized blushes, but now $46 are back in my pocket lol.

My MAC parcel came today :)
Play Time is alot sheerer than I expected but you can build it up - such a lovely colour even though I kinda hate purples on my lips! I tried on giggly on my cheeks and I didn't find it chalky or anything although it is a little glittery but nothing too jazzy. I've yet to try Sakura but when I swatched the outer heart it looked a little chalky :/ the heart part is such a lovely colour though! Hopefully it will look good mixed :)

Is it just me or is Play Time similar to Up the Amp?

I feel like sakura will look just like any other cool toned hot pink blush on me or the same as Two Virtues mineralized blush.

The color payoff with sakura is terrible. It looks extreamly chalky. Giggly and the other one are nice though. I'm totally in LOVE with the neon pink!! Its crazy bright and fabulous!! I'm buying 3 tubes!! The shadows are ok. They build up suprisingly well. This lip pencils are a must have if you like a nude lip.
